Last year we had informal breakout discussions at the lunch tables and
this year we'd like to formalize that a bit by suggesting some topics for
discussion and then receiving lunchtable reports when we return to the
meeting room (sometimes the most creative solutions are developed over
meals or a mug of beer).

Intro

The 2008 edition of FOSDEM (the Free and Open source Software Developers' Europe Meeting) will take place at the ULB, Brussels, Belgium over the weekend of February 23-24 2008.

Here is the plan for the Jabber/XMPP community...

We don't have a FOSDEM "devroom" this year so we will focus on a booth at FOSDEM on Saturday. Jabberites will also be encouraged to attend various FOSDEM talks on Saturday.

On Sunday and Monday we will hold a "devcon" at the Atlas Hotel in Brussels. Join the devcon list to discuss.

If you want to help out with the booth or attend the devcon, leave your name below. If you do not have an account at this wiki, contact Alexander Gnauck and he will create an account for you.

A map of the area around the hotel can be seen at http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=50.85006&lon=4.34652&zoom=17&layers=B0FT. The beer event is held at the Delirium Bar.

The XMPP Standards Foundation will pay the hotel costs of any XSF member who participates in the devcon. The XSF may ask that you share a room with another XSF member, but we will pay for up to four nights' stay at the Atlas hotel.
